The IBM RDX solution provides all the benefits of disk, with fast random access to data and drag-and-drop functionality, plus the expected portability and durability of tape. Designed for portability and longevity, the rugged RDX cartridges are engineered for durability, so you can safely transport offsite while also providing the shelf life required for archival requirements.

Ideal for small and medium business or distributed IBM System x® and IBM BladeCenter® environments, the new IBM RDX removable disk backup offerings deliver the flexibility, simplicity, performance and capacities required in a data protection solution.

Flexibility and Scalability

High Performance USB Connectivity

IBM RDX docks come with an USB 3.0 interface allowing for plug-
and-play internal or external connectivity for simplified out of the box
setup. This provides for a lower implementation cost by eliminating the
need for an extra host bus adapter.

Intuitive management

Backup utilities and applications can be used with the IBM RDX
solution. They can provide a powerful, intuitive wizard-based
management approach to backup and recovery. Simplified process
management offerings can come with a full feature set, providing such
advanced functionality as bare metal disaster recovery and cartridge
encryption features.
